Still a killer deal even if you have to take the engine down.

By the way, my old offer is still good.

Guys Brians boat is nice. Look at the picks. All real good stuff. So if you have to pull the motor so what. If you cant pull a motor you have no reason looking at a used boat in the first place. Rebuilds are very expensive when you have nothing. No motor gimbal drive.This boat has it all. To put an 800 in that boat with a good gimbal and drive like it has would be over 50 grand. Low 20,s is a steal. If the stock market didnt tank he would be asking more like 40k. Someone better buy it before he wakes up and decides to keep it !

Oh I know its a great deal, and doing the motor work myself is no big deal, done quite a few, just none with a blower... yet.

Brian - Has the boat been painted or is it all white gel coat? Has the hull ever been repaired?

So take the blower off and sell it. Make the motor naturally aspirated. It's 540 cubic inch. You'll be able to make 650 hp no problem. As far as the hull, there's been a double of minor ding repairs. It's all white gel coat.

HUH???? zup.. i've read plenty of your posts... that's the 1st thing i've read of yours that's assanine. unless i'm misunderstanding you.


Also, when did the engine get built? And that's a dry exhaust, right?

Storm My intention was to maybe weed out the tire kickers. Some people just dont know what things really cost. I mean the good stuff. The bucket seats alone are over 2k.
